With just one hundred days before the South Korean presidential election, North Korea’s propagandists continue to seek ways to affect the outcome, most recently by moving to place the blame for recent sexual assault cases on the administration of Lee Myung Bak and the Saenuri Party.
Uriminzzokiri, a major North Korean propaganda website targeting South Korea run by the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Fatherland, made the claim in an article published today called “The inevitable fruits of misrule; elementary school abduction and sexual assault scandal.”
It declared, “The elementary school abduction and assault scandal is the result of the misrule of the conservative traitor party, which took power without even a hint of ethics or governing ability.”
“That the number of all kinds of criminal acts including sexual assault has been rising exponentially is the inevitable fruit of the anti-nation misrule of the Lee Myung Bak regime and its Saenuri Party clique,” it added.
“This tragic reality clearly reaffirms a lesson; that we must hand Lee Myung Bak and the Saenuri Party clique a stern judgment, for the sake of the safety of South Chosun society as much as anything else,” it concluded.
